GENERAL PRECAUTIONS IN USE
A. Never operate the unit when it is empty.
Operating the oven with no load may shorten the
life of the magnetron. Whenever cooking dry foods
(dried fish, bread, etc.) or a small amount of food,
be sure to put a glass of water into the cooking
compartment. The glass turntable may become hot
after operating, be careful when touching it.
B. Aluminum foil should be avoided because it will
disrupt cooking and may cause arcing. However,
small pieces may be used to cover some parts of
food to slow the cooking. Any aluminum foil used
should never be closer than 2.5 cm to any side wall
of the oven.
TRIAL OPERATION
After installation, the following sequences and results
should be checked carefully.
A. Put a container filled with water (about 1 liter) into
the oven, and close the door tightly.
B. Set cooking time for 10 minutes by touching “1”
and then “0” three times. “1, 0, 0, 0” appears in
the display window.
C. Touch the START key.
Make sure the cavity light comes on. The unit will
begin cooking and the display window will show the
time counting down by seconds.
D. After about 5 minutes, make sure the primary
interlock switch, the secondary interlock switch and
the interlock monitor switch operate properly by
opening and closing the door several times. Touch
the START key each time the door is closed.
E. Continue operating the unit. Two short and a long
beep sound signal is heard when the time is up.
The unit will shut off automatically.
F. Confirm the water is hot.
